The silly expensive bike review is a criticism that could easily be made of top gear with their constant super car obsession…
true, but Top gear would say whether one car worth a hefty lump more than another is actually worth the money. They would say if the fact it has this engine, and these breaks, is good, though to his credit a little bit of emotion came through on the electronic shifting, but not much. Often they say they wouldn’t bother with the extra spend, too many nobs and twiddles etc.
In their defence harder to do a review to camera cycling than driving on a private track.
I think its come on, and my criticism is only because I think there is a good show in there somewhere, getting ever closer. The overall structure was better, getting out of London is a great idea, coming to Yorkshire given the Tour next year is great. End of the day they have to a straddle a very difficult line trying to please enthusiasts and mildly interested hobbyists alike. Getting there. I will be watching next week.
